Method

Step 1
Mix the flours, butter and lemon together with cold water until you have a ‘just’ pourable consistency.

Step 2
Add in the spices, ginger and garlic and then stir through the onion.

Step 3
Fill a large pan up to a third with the oil and then heat until a cube of bread browns in 30 seconds. Fry small spoonfuls of the mixture in batches for 2-3 minutes or until golden and crisp and drain on kitchen towel.

Step 4
Sprinkle with salt while they are still hot. Let the bhajis cool slightly while you make the dip.

Step 5
Combine the yoghurt and garlic with a good sprinkle of salt and then gently stir in the mint. Serve the bhajis with the dip and lemon wedges.
